The best way is through dreams IMO. My spirit ally, power animal or whatever you want to call it is a very large grizzly.

At first he would help me out in dreams, then he came more and more. Now I have a very powerful bond with him.

I think the Shamans manifested it with thought - just as you can manifest a sword and armor in the astral realms.

It's like a crutch you can rest on when times get tough. I've been looking for some literature on the subject too.

Do you know of any good books on specific shamanic practices for healing? I have read a few books on faery healing and such, and I'd like to hear more about specific shamanic rituals.

Was yours an animal as well? Have you been in contact with more than one?

Does it ever manifest/communicate/guide you during trips?

Only "human" spirits, I think more than one, but they aren't real big on identifying themselves. The more I interact with them the less I know. I don't worry about some of the details anymore. I do believe that I have a group with one spokesman.

Not yet. I usually see him in the astral plane or dreams. I sometimes sense his presence while awake also.

Ive had reoccurring images of a person and spoken to him a lot. I think he might be a spirit ally of some kind. I just wonder who he is and where he comes from. He's always smoking a cigarette. There's also female ones Ive seen which helped me a lot. Also there have been elves, also very helpful.
